AgION AntimicrobialTM —
Built-in Protection for
Your Phone
Motorola has incorporated AgION antimicrobial
into the painted surfaces of your phone to help
provide protection against a broad range of product
damaging bacteria, mold, and mildew.
Motorola is the first wireless phone manufacturer to
incorporate AgION antimicrobial into the phone's
painted surfaces.
The antimicrobial technology is an example of
Motorola's pursuit for innovation and creativity to
produce the best quality wireless experience.
The antimicrobial technology in the paint on
Motorola iDEN®phones helps provide protection
against product damage caused by microbes, but
does not extend such protection to the user.
Versatile in application, the EPA-registered AgION
additive is recommended for institutional,
commercial and consumer applications. AgION
antimicrobials are used in many settings including
hospitals, offices, schools and food processing
facilities. They can also be found in leading
footwear, fabrics, appliances, water coolers and
architectural hardware.
Benefits of AgIONTM*
•AgION antimicrobial technology helps provide
protectionagainst product damaging bacteria on
the painted surfaces of the phone.
•AgION antimicrobial is effective in protecting the
product against a broad spectrum of bacteria.
•AgION helps inhibit the ability of microbes to
grow and spread on the painted surfaces of the
phone.
•The active ingredient helps break down
enzymes in the microbe, inhibiting its ability to
reproduce and spread on the painted surfaces of
the phone.
•Studies have shown that surfaces with AgION
antimicrobial can reduce the amount of certain
product damaging bacteria by 99%.
•The AgION coating will protect the painted
surfaces of the product against product
damaging bacteria for the life of the product.
* The antimicrobial technology is applied only to the painted
surfaces of the Motorola iDEN phones, thereby providing
protection against damage to such surfaces caused by microbes,
but does not extend such protection to the end user.

x
Safety
•AgION antimicrobial protection is based on
silver, a safe, non-toxic additive to the phone
paint. Silver is widely used as an antimicrobial
agent in many environments and industries.
•AgION antimicrobial technology is safe to use.
Thorough testing has shown the additive to be
less toxic than table salt and less irritating than
talcum powder.
How It Works
•The technology continuously inhibits the growth
of product damaging bacteria on the phone's
painted surfaces.The active ingredient helps
break down enzymes in the microbe, inhibiting
its ability to reproduce and spread on the painted
surfaces on the phonee.
•The active ingredient in AgION is silver, in the
form of silver ions.
Accreditation
•The AgION antimicrobial compound is
registered with the Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) as a preservative and
bacteriostatic agent for use in the manufacturing
of polymers and plastics.
•NSF, FDA-listed

Locating Your SIM Card
To start using your i870 phone:
•Make sure your SIM card is in place.
•Charge the battery.
•Activate your service.
•Enable over-the-air security if you are prompted
to.
Locating Your SIM Card
Your SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card is a
small piece of plastic located in the SIM card
holder in the back of your phone, underneath the
battery.
If your SIM card is not in the SIM card holder, it
may be in the box your phone came in, attached to
a piece of plastic about the size of a credit card. If
this is the case, carefully detach your SIM card
from the surrounding plastic and insert it as
described in “Inserting Your SIM Card” on page 16.
